Kuala Lumpur, Mar. 21.
Hagen and Kirkwood gave a fine exhibition of golf to beat Vority, the Club profess.onal, and W. H. Elkins, in a four-bali match at the Selangor Golf Club this morning. Hagen was es- pecially brilliant and accurate. The match was won 3 and 2 at the fifteenth.
The only weak player of the four was the local professional, but he with brought rounds of applause some beautiful shots and was res ponsible for the only hole won by from the local pair.

It was not a perfect game, left nood deal to be desired in the way of thrills, but it was not entirely devoid of interest. The Corinthian- Club combination proved superior, with a sound und workmanlike de- fence and a penetrative, fast moving set of forwards, and, though they Ecored once in each halt, they obtain- ed just reward.

JUNIOR SHIELD GAME
Injuries Beat Navy in Semi-
final Ordnance Win
Navy was most unlucky to lose to Ordnance by two clear goals in the replayed Junior Shield semi-final yesterday. Five minutes after the kick-off it lost Anderson, through an injury, and on the start of the extra- time took the field with only nine men owing to an injury to Love.
Typical cup-to football was dis- well sides; many played by both constructed movements by the Navy forwards in the first half came to erratic shooting naught owing to when near goal and in the second half when on top Ordnance was also guilty,
The man of the match was Regler who gave a brilliant display at full- back. Hill brought off many ne saves and Laister worked hard and had Martin completely bottled-up. Lacking the services of Anderson the Was thrown Navy's forward line completely out of gear but Stone number of was responsible for a brilliant solo efforts.
Ordnance was well served in every department. In the defence Voug- niaux played a rare stopping game and worked untiringly. Rides was prominent among the half-backs and tested Hill with a number of rasping drives. In the forwards Emberson and Dumeld displayed good combina- tlon and Munton was a very thrust- ful leader. Lang, although opposed formidable opponent as to such a Regler, put in a number of dangerous centres.
Novy was castly superior in the first half but on the resumption the strain of playing with only 10 men was more than noticeable and the longer the game proceeded so Ord- the nance gradually began to get upper hand. However the soldiers were unable to press home their ad- vantage before 80 minutes and ex- tro-time had to be played. During this period Ordnance was definitely on top and it came as no surprise
